Abstract

This article argues that in light of the restricted application of the ‘navigation and management exception’ under the Hague- Visby Rules, the exclusion of the exception in the Hamburg and Rotterdam Rules is undesirable. Also, it was shown that the fire exception provisions under the Hamburg and Rotterdam Rules are not substantially different from the fire exception under the Hague-Visby Rules. In light of these, the position of the Hamburg and Rotterdam Rules in relation to the exceptions is unjustifiable.
